229375 "View EXACT ACTUAL Image"){kind=small} |
433, 435 (Facit #492, 494) on 24 November 1972 registered air cover to the U.S. Total franking 35 kr. The registry fee was 16 kr, the balance of 19 kr is probably for 15 grams -- but (my copy of) the Flack book seems to have some problems in this year with duplicated or incorrectly labeled tables. The 30 kr stamp is quite scarce on cover. ACTUAL item. |

Scott #447 [1973 13 kr Europa] (VF) on picture post card (Stapafell and Snæfellsjökull [glacier], Western Iceland) datelined 5 July 1973 and exactly paying the rate for air post cards sent outside Iceland (1 May 1972 - 30 June 1973). The cancellation on the card is unclear, but does show "....S?API", HOWEVER THE CARD SPECIFICALLY STATES THAT IT IS BEING MAILED AT ARNARSTAPI -- A VERY SCARCE POST OFFICE!!!! The picture on the card plays into the very interesting message on the card regarding locating previous sites were numeral cancellations had been used. The card was sent by WAYNE SOMMER, a well-known American collector, researcher, and philatelic writer of Iceland, to a collector of Iceland in the U.S. The stamp was issued 30 April 1973, THUS THIS STAMP COULD ONLY BE USED FOR THE INTENDED POSTAL RATE FOR TWO MONTHS -- SUCH USES ARE VERY SCARCE and certainly even scarcer from a tiny rural post office! ACTUAL item. |
